As a health practitioner or small business owner, it’s easy to get caught up in day-to-day tasks and forget about the legal foundations that support your business. But just like a regular health check-up, your business needs a legal check-in to ensure everything is still working as it should.
If it’s been more than 12 months since you reviewed your legal foundations, now is the perfect time to check in.
Here’s why.
Your business has probably changed.
Whether you’ve launched a new service, tweaked your offerings, added an online course, or simply shifted direction- you’ve likely outgrown last year’s setup. But are your legal documents still aligned with where your business is now?
- Are you still operating under the best legal structure (sole trader v Company)?
- Are your contracts, disclaimers, and website policies still up to date?
Many practitioners create their legal documents once, then forget about them. But as your services evolve, so should your documents. - Do your documents reflect what you currently do and how you deliver it?
If you’re seeing clients online, working across borders, or offering digital products and courses, your legal foundations need to reflect that. - What about your intellectual property? Have you created a signature method, program, or brand? It might be time to register a trademark or protect your IP in other ways.
- Are you using AI in your business? Do you have a policy in place and are you checking you are using AI tools legally and ethically?
- Have you checked your insurance policies? Do they adequately cover all your business activities, how you operate and where ?
- Do you have the right systems and policies in place to manage risk?
So… Is your business still legally healthy?
